Potty training
Potty training is a big step for a toddler. A book introduces the subject calmly: your child sees what happens, and you talk about it at a moment when nothing has to happen yet.
Because your child plays the lead, the recognition is strongest. You decide how the story goes: let the plushie practise first, include an accident that turns out to be fine, or head straight for the potty.
